Stampeders training camp started this week with mostly rookies. The main training camp starts tomorrow My 29th at McMahon Stadium. Lot of changes in the team starting with the head coaching Dave Dickenson and John Hufnagel concentrating on his GM position. Other changes from personnel are Claybrooks as Defensive Coordinator, Corey Mace as Defensive Line coach. Veteran players such as MLB Juwan Simpsons was let go due to high contract and his age. On of my favorite Stampeder Keon Raymond signed as a free agent to Toronto Argonauts, Receivers Eric Rogers(San Francisco), Jeff Fuller(also to NFL but was let go before the NFL Draft). RB Jon Cornish retired due to concussion problem, DL Freddie Bishop III to NFL, OL Edwin Harrison(retirement). Lots of competition in this training camp and it is going to be interesting.
